Leaders like Cesar Chavez built strong unions and a strong middle class. But corporations bribed politicians to weaken unions with “right-to-work” laws. On this Cesar Chavez Day, I’m introducing legislation to repeal “right-to-work” and let workers organize in Texas. #txlege

“The problem that a lot of us have had with charters is that they are considered public schools and they are taxpayer-funded, but they don’t have taxpayer scrutiny.” Rep. @DonnaHowardTX 👏 expressnews.com/politics/art… #TxEd #TxLege

I want my tax dollars going to fund my neighborhood public school — not to the pockets of wealthy families who were already sending their kids to private schools. #TxLege should reject school voucher schemes & increase $$$ for PUBLIC education instead. #TxEd @TexasAFT

As a Texas educator, you have rights. It's important you know them because your admins may not. (We have the questions from principals in our inbox to prove it.) Join @TexasAFTBIPD for a free #KnowYourRights workshop Wednesday at 6 p.m. CT. mobilize.us/texasaft/event/5…
